"I am a dedicated and passionate educator with a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Towson University, where I gained hands-on experience in diverse learning environments and instructional methods. I furthered my expertise by earning a Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction, which has strengthened my ability to design tailored lessons that meet the individual needs of my students.

With over nine years of teaching experience, I have taught both second and third grade, specializing in foundational literacy and mathematics. I am well-versed in implementing Common Core standards, Benchmark, Eureka Math, and CKLA (Core Knowledge Language Arts & Literacy Curriculum). My teaching approach is dynamic and student-centered, incorporating whole-group instruction, small-group learning, and individualized support. I am particularly passionate about using intervention strategies to target specific learning gaps, ensuring that each student receives the personalized instruction they need to succeed.

In addition to classroom teaching, I have extensive tutoring experience, both in-person and online, helping students master reading and math concepts. I use engaging, interactive methods—including games, websites, and slide presentations—to make learning fun and accessible while achieving measurable academic progress. My tutoring expertise includes phonics and fluency, reading comprehension, multiplication and division, three-digit addition and subtraction, and word problem-solving.

I am committed to creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel confident, curious, and inspired to develop a lifelong love of learning." less...
